As Mumsnetters have the answers to everything, I just wondered if anyone out there has bought a mobile phone for someone older - we are talking mid/late seventies here. The recipients (my parents) are a bit deaf and although not arthritic a bit flummoxed by the teeny tiny buttons on our home digital phone. They did request the mobile for Christmas, though - I am not inflicting a horrible surprise on them.
I'm hoping there's a model out there with larger than average buttons...and simple to operate. WAP compatibility and downloadable ring tones are not an issue here (God forbid).
Anyone any ideas or recommendations? Or could there be a gap in the market?
